This is [D] the moment [Eb] when the gods expect [D] me to [Gm] beg for help
But I [Bb] won't even try
I want nothing in this world
But [D] myself [D] to protect me
[Eb] But I won't lie down, roll over [D] and die
[Gm]
[Cm] [Cm]
[D]
[Gm] All I have to do is to forget how [Cm] much I love him
[F] All I have to do is put my loving [Gm] to one side
[Bb] Tell myself that love's a never changing [C] situation
[Eb]
Passion would have cooled and all the magic [D] would have died
But now it's [Ebm] [D] easy, it's [Gm] easy
[Eb] Until I think about him as he was when I [D] last saw him
[Eb] And how he would have been were I to be with him [D] today
[Ab] [Fm] Tender in this manner and myself [G] consolation
I want
[Fm] it and I'm throwing it [D] away
[G]
[Eb] It's [D] easy, [G] it's [D] easy
[Gm] As a lie
[Cm]
[D]
[Gm] All I have to do is to pretend I [Cm] never knew him
[F] On those very rare occasions when he steals into [Gm] my heart
[Bb] Better to have lost him than the ties that I'm [C] barely finding
[Eb]
Better the contempt of the familiar [D] can last long
[D]
[Ebm] It's [D] easy, it's [Gm] easy
Oh [Eb] and though I think about him
Till the earth draws in [D] around me
[Eb] And though I choose to leave him for another kind of [D] love
Oh [Fm] this is no denial, no betrayal [G] but redemption
[Ab] Spreading in my eyes and in the pantheon [D] above
[G]
[Eb] It's easy, [D]
[Eb] it's [D] easy
[Eb] It's [D] easy [Gm] as a lie
